I disagree. We have a letter written by Paul in 55 or 54 AD that say s Christ appeared to 500 people at one time, after he died. Such a claim was so close to the event that the account could be shot down on such a large scale that we wouldn't be here talking about it. All people would have had to say is "where are these 500 witnesses?" and if we can't come up with them, then Christianity goes POOF.

not to mention the fact that he also appeared to Paul(at the time Saul) who was a major skeptic of Christianity and even was going as far as to put people in jail/have them killed for believing it.

Jeremiah 17:9 also says: The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked, who can know it?

Basically, everything a person does (whether a Christian or not) is going to be tainted in some way with sin. Even the "good" things.

Historical accuracy is not a matter of faith.

it is related though. if what's written in the Bible, in particular the New Testament, is historically accurate...then Jesus really lived. He really said what he said. He really died on a cross. And He really rose again from the dead 3 days later. And that carries a lot of religious significance.
